| We calculate implied costs for wireless networks and use them for evaluating trade-oos between calls of diierent rates. We model user mobility by assigning probabilities for the departure of calls. We use Fixed Channel Assignment (FCA) with priority for handoos over new call arrivals by reserving a number of channels for handoo calls in all the cells. The performance measures used are new cal...

Here we design and evaluate the cost-efficiency of a trap-based surveillance program for early detection of wood borers and bark beetles at risk of establishing in New Zealand. Although costly, a surveillance prog...
